I’m a big of Donnie Yen’s IP Man film franchise, but this new film, Ip Man: The Awakening is not a part of that. In fact, after those films have been made, I’m not sure why anyone would try to make another Ip Man movie, but they have, and it definitely isn’t going to be as good. The quality of the film and the martial arts choreography just don’t reach that greatness of Ip Man.
In the film, “While visiting Hong Kong, a young Master Ip intervenes in a kidnapping attempt, unintentionally igniting a turf war with a ruthless human trafficking ring. In retaliation, the gang kidnaps one of Ip Man’s close friends, leaving him with no choice but to challenge the group’s notoriously brutal boxing champion head-on.”
The movie is co-directed by Li Xi Jie and Zhang Zhu Lin, and the cast includes wing chun martial arts master Miu Tse (My Father is a Hero) as Ip Man, who is joined by Chen Guan Ying, Zhao Yu Xuan, and Hao Yan Fei.
Ip Man: The Awakening is set to stream on the martial arts streaming service Hi-Yah! on May 20th. It will be released on Digital, Blu-Ray and DVD June 21st.
